Matchroom Boxing promoter, Eddie Hearn has claimed he “doesn’t believe” former two-division UFC champion, Conor McGregor will be in attendance at the 3Arena in Dublin this weekend to watch compatriot, Katie Taylor’s light welterweight title rematch with Chantelle Cameron, after the Dubliner was accused of posting multiple “incendiary” statements on social media relating to Ireland’s immigration policy.
McGregor, a former undisputed lightweight and featherweight champion under the banner of the promotion, who sponsored Bray native, Taylor’s Irish homecoming earlier this year through his Forged Irish Stout business operation, was accused among others of “inciting hate” through numerous “absolutely disgraceful” posts across social media last night, amid riots in Dublin city center by Tanaiste, Micheal Martin.
